An opening ceremony for the “Old Masters from the Hermitage” exhibition took place today at Vienna’s Kunsthistorisches Museum. The project marks the 50-year anniversary of Russian #gas supplies to Austria.
The ceremony was attended by Vladimir Putin, President of the Russian Federation, Alexander Van der Bellen, Federal President of the Republic of Austria, Sebastian Kurz, Federal Chancellor of Austria, Alexey Miller, Chairman of the #gazprom Management Committee, Rainer Seele, Chairman of the Executive Board of OMV, Mikhail Piotrovsky, Director General of the State Hermitage Museum, and Sabine Haag, Director General of Vienna’s Kunsthistorisches Museum.
The exhibition features acclaimed works from two of the world’s top museums – the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg and the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Each museum selected 14 paintings by Rembrandt, van Dyck, Tintoretto, Botticelli and other great masters, pairing up the artworks based on their authorship, themes or compositional arrangements. The event is held with support from #gazprom and OMV as part of the “Imperial Capitals: St. Petersburg – Vienna” joint project.
